Between the fallen

Where have I gone wrong
Why am I lost
Unknown to these parts of life

I scramble a top this mess
Look down upon the tattered and torn
Know somehow I’ve pulled myself
I’ve pulled myself

Somewhere
Between the fallen
I found myself amongst the dead
Pull my life together
To face the light instead
Between the fallen

For every one of us
Came a thousand before
Join the natural progression
Come a thousand more
I am just here within my being
Within the cycle of life
The chosen strife
I just am

This is the luck of the draw
Not always reaping what we sow
I have pulled the shortest straw
Head down, trudge to the future

Somewhere
Between the fallen
I found myself amongst the dead
Pull my life together
To face the light instead
Between the fallen

To face the light instead

Our connected fates
Is nothing but chance
A fused existence
No one will guard the pearly gates
Left alone
With support of solitude
All living things will die alone

No way to know
No one to thank
Acceptance is my turn
A part of the cycle
The missing chain
This is life's game

Somewhere
Between the fallen
I found myself amongst the dead
Pull my life together
To face the light instead
Between the fallen
